the fairytale Jack and the beanstalk. The valentine mocks the soldier for his unappealing bad temper.

| Notes |
Text: Who'd marry a man with a head like a bomb, / And a mouth with a smoking fusee? / What woman with him her life would
trust, / For his head might at any moment burst, / And then, where would she be?
